Miles to date: 162
Last week, my training was...sporadic.
I took some time off from work last week and spent a few days down the Cape with Meghan after the Road Race. I have pontificated before about finding ways to train when you're away, sometimes you do, sometimes you don't.
I was able to get in a decent four mile run on Tuesday, noting too big to speak of. Wednesday, I was scheduled for seven miles, however, I made the executive decision to take the day off. Meghan and I headed for Martha's Vineyard for the day. The ferry schedule that we had to adhere to did not really allow for the time to go for a decently long run. So instead, we went to the island and biked around for the day. We did manage to cover almost 25 miles this way, so the day was certainly not wasted.
I went for my longer weekday run on Friday, as Thursday was spent traveling back to Belmont and my first day back at work. I headed out for a seven mile run and felt like it was going really well, I seemed to be ahead of my time and felt great. I logged it in just under 55 minutes and couldnt believe it.
So I double checked the distance, it wasn't seven, hell, it wasn't even six miles. It was 5.6.
Needless to say, my time was explained.
It was a great week off, and training didn't suffer too too much, so I'll chalk it up to a win.
